These traitors trace their ancestry from India. Yet due to freedom of speech permitted at their present country, they fervently show their hatred for India at such parades that are supposed to showcase their culture & tradition than highlight their dubious political goals.

Glorifying the martyrs (as per them) who died fighting for the Sikh cause. These include the eunuchs who killed our former prime minister, the militants who killed retired general Arun. S. Vaidya & even the Air India Kanishka bombing accused. The indifferent & mute Canadian government would soon pay their price for letting these leeches flourish on their soil.

Assassins of Indira Gandhi glorified at Canadian Baisakhi parade

Top Canadian leaders stayed away from a controversial Baisakhi parade, which displayed pictures of Sikh militants in the city of Surrey near here.

Over 100,000 attended the parade, which is the largest such event by the Indo-Canadian community in the country.

Though there were no floats glorifying militant Sikhs during Saturday's parade organised by the Dasmesh Darbar Sikh Temple, its pro-Khalistan message was unmistakable, with its lead poster proclaiming: 'We salute our great martyrs.'

The organisers had put up an exhibition of pictures of 'shaheeds' (martyrs) on the temple premises. On top of the entrance gate to the exhibition was written in bold letters: 'Story of Sikh Genocide in India'.

Among those whose photos were displayed were Satwant Singh and Beant Singh, the two assassins of former Indian prime minister Indira Gandhi, Sukha and Jinda, the killers of former Indian army chief General A.S. Vaidya, who is blamed for ordering the 1984 army action at the Golden Temple in Amrtisar to flush out militants, and leaders of the banned Babbar Khalsa and the International Sikh Youth Federation.

Under the headline 'And those who betrayed the cause of the Sikh nation' were displayed pictures of Indira Gandhi, late president Giani Zail Singh, former home minister Buta Singh, late Punjab chief minister Beant Singh, and late Sant Harchand Singh Longowal, former Akali Dal president who had signed the Punjab peace accord with Rajiv Gandhi.

Also included under this headline was the top leadership of the Akali Dal, including Parkash Singh Badal, his son Sukhbir and Tamil Nadu governor and former Akali Dal leader Surjit Singh Barnala.

The pictures of the mutilated bodies of young Sikhs allegedly killed in staged state killings were also displayed.

Since their presence at last year's parade, which carried floats depicting militant Sikh leaders such as Air India plot mastermind Talwinder Singh Parmar, later became an embarrassment for them, most political leaders decided to stay away.

British Columbian premier Gordon Campbell left for Vancouver Island. Attorney-general Wally Oppal, who is the topmost Indo-Canadian in the provincial government, too didn't show up. Opposition leader Carole James too was absent as was Indo-Canadian MP Neena Grewal.

However, former Canadian revenue minister Herb Dhaliwal was present at the main stage at the Sikh temple, as were some other Indo-Canadian leaders, including MP Sukh Dhaliwal, former British Columbia minister Moe Sihota, and Jagrup Brar and Harry Bains, both MLAs.

'Everybody has a right to speech as long as it does not promote violence. So I have no problem in coming here,' Brar told IANS.

Surrey city mayor Diane Watts walked with the parade under heavy security, but stayed away from the parade organisers.

The mayor and the city authorities had counselled the radical Sikh temple against displaying such floats as it condoned acts of violence.

Surrey is home to the largest concentration of Indo-Canadians, mostly Punjabis, anywhere outside of India. During the militancy in Punjab, it had become the hotbed of separatist pro-Khalistan elements.

However, the truth about why Sikhs (who were fervently anti-Mughal, and anti-Paki due to 1947 events) were inspired to rebel against Indira (taking Paki support) has not emerged...

Could you shed some light on this "truth"? It was Bhindranwale who influenced & stirred up Sikh nationalism & the creation of Khalistan then. Indira had him eliminated with Operation Blue star. I donít believe prior to him getting popular, there was any Sikh separatist movement then.

As for Sikhs, I respect them & personally have many sardar friends. Sikhs are hardworking, enterprising & patriotic.

But its disgusting to see the above news wherein villains are worshipped as heroes & martyrs. Killing an unarmed & unsuspecting lady by someone whom she trusted the most doesnít make the killers heroes. Gunning down an unarmed & retired general before his own family doesnít make the murderers heroes. Clandestinely placing a bomb within an aircraft & blowing up innocents over the Atlantic doesnít equate the perpetrators to heroes. These so called martyrs were nothing but cowards & the above diaspora revering such idiots as martyrs is truly despicable. Traitors indeed.

and that bastard lady (and her son, & father) killing unsuspecting innocents en masse in Punjab and elsewhere for her political gain is OK?...I am not condoning the Kanishka blow up...but perhaps you forget that Bhindranwale was a skeleton that came out from Indira's closet

Dhuru, what unsuspecting killed innocents are you talking about? It was only after Operation Blue Star that militancy rose in Punjab, that was eventually quelled over the years. Prior to that, what en masse killing are you referring to?

Be it whatever, Indira was justified then to send the army to the Golden temple & flush out the militants inside.

with all the due respect to my co-members who had have enough of sardar bashing. A few things:

A Palastinian soldier:
Terrorist for Israel, Hero for Palastinian

An Israelie soldier:
Terrorist for Palastinians, Hero for Israel

Osama:
Terrorist for the world, Hero of Arab world

Bhagat Singh:
Greatest Indian Hero, Terrorist for then Brit empire

Che Guevara:
A great reformist for world, Terrorist for US/Cuba govt.

Dalai Lama:
Saint for the world, A Dangreous man who is spreading violence for China

Sikh Separatist:
Hero for Sikhs, Terrorist for Gandhi clan

I think U all people got my point.

abey sardar pagadi bandhane se tera dimag nahi badh jayega.

British ne India occupy kiya tha so there was fight for freedom. Read the Israel- Palastian history, not all the palastian know as terrorist but for sure Hamas is consider as terrorist even among palastinian, Israel never consider as terrorist among palastian.

China forcefully occupy tibbat but dalai lama was never consider as terrorist by china.

FYI, Indira tacitly supported Bhindranwale when he was a budding terrorist because it suited her. But then Bhindranwale turned out to be a "bhasmasur" (as Advani has aptly termed) and at that point Indira tried to annihilate him. In doing so, she gave liberty to Punjab police who screwed more innocents than annihilate terrorists...it was only after Sikh community realized that some of these terrorists have started screwing the community is when KPS Gill got success

Her son Sanjay Gandhi was a well known thug. I think the political ineptness runs in the Nehru blood...Nehru screwed the country on China-Tibet issue, Indira inflamed Sikhs by not checking Bhindranwale in time and by imposing emergency to consolidate her power, and Rajiv ended up weak willed and backstabbed on LTTE issue...Sonia is screwing India by allowing pro Chinese elements in power and remains to be seen how Raul (indianized version Rahul) screws India in future

British ne India occupy kiya tha so there was fight for freedom. Read the Israel- Palastian history, not all the palastian know as terrorist but for sure Hamas is consider as terrorist even among palastinian, Israel never consider as terrorist among palastian.

here's the message I posted there. I'm sure most senior members would agree with what I had to say about you and your filthy posts.
